About Us
The CompTIA Educational Foundation is the charitable arm of CompTIA, the world’s leading IT association. Through our main program, Creating Futures, we provide training and certification opportunities to populations who have historically been under-represented in the information technology workforce, including U.S. veterans, individuals with disabilities, women, minorities, at-risk youth and dislocated workers.
The CompTIA Educational Foundation uses research to determine emerging skills that individuals must possess to work on the latest technologies. This helps the Foundation develop programs that produce properly skilled workers for the latest, in-demand IT jobs. Our leading program, Creating Futures, is different than any other training program because we work with employers to find needs, and then train individuals to fit those needs. In this way, individuals can overcome barriers to employment, and employers can build a productive and diverse workforce.
The Foundation receives contributions and grants from individuals, industry leaders, businesses and the government to fund our programs.
